Tulsa >Food & Dining > Fish Daddy's Seafood Grill
10624 E 71st St, Tulsa, OK | Directions 7413336.060809 -95.858994
Great catfish! – We stayed away from this place for over a year when they quit making the onion strings. It was a great appetizer to go with average food. They need to bring them back. The catfish is much better now that they offer a choice of cornmeal or beer batter. It's the best catfish we've had in a while. I don't know why they have this huge long table in the middle of the dining area. They need to spread the tables out to give people more room for people sitting at regular tables. I was told they were under new management, so we'll se what changes.
I Love Fish Daddy's – People need to quit bitching. Fish Daddy's is one of my favorite resturants and I am there every week! Service is great, friendly staff, managers very helpful and polite, great food for low prices! Waiting tables is tough at times, give your waitor/waitress a break, they live off your tips! Think about it, tip your server!
Service is poor food rocks – The greeter never said welcome hi can I help just picked up a menu and said "over here". The waitress seemed to be stoned. Food took forever, don,t get me wrong the waitress was timely in her actions my glass was never empty but acted like she would rather be burned at the stake than be at work. Also had the gossip game going at the greeters stand. The food was great loved the fish, vegies were fresh, may have been because my expectations were low but I was impressed. Need to fix the service or tulsa will loose a well cooked meal.
Tacky Wait Staff; Short Sighted Management – I had a first ever experience at Fish Daddy's Tulsa restaurant this evening. After finishing my meal and a drink, I ordered a second drink. Before I was halfway through with it my waitress came to my table and asked me to get my drink finished, my bill paid, and get moving because the restaurant was busy and she needed to reseat my table. UNBELIEVABLE!!!! TACKY TO THE MAX!!!! When the manager came by my table I asked him if it was standard procedure to ask repeat customers to leave before their dining experience was over (I have NEVER been treated like this at any restaurant before). He apologized and said he would talk to the waitress; which he did. However, my waitress did not apologize and the manager was too dense to offer to comp my meal or offer any discount or coupons to make up for the insult. Previously I have dined there often and taken friends and recommended the restaurant. Not any longer!!!! I'll start patronizing a restaurant that appreciates my business.
Have been there many times – We have been to Fish Daddy's many times since it has opened. We love it. There has been a time or two when there was a wait, but they were super busy those nights. There has been a couple of times they started to seat us at a table we didn't like and we asked to be seated somewhere else and they have moved us. When we all go out there is six of us and all of us like going there. As for the service we have had some servers that have been better then the others and I notice the ones that are not very good don't stay for very long. The managers have always been very nice. Just thanking about it makes me hungery I look forward to my next trip back.
Bad service – The guy with the two thumbs WAY up must be the owner of this restaurant. I too have experienced bad service. First of all LONG wait time for our food and the restaurant was not even all that busy. Finally when the order came it was not right. Manager kind of likes to argue with you. I'll never go there again.
PERFECT RESTAURANT – This is not necessarily a review but a correction to some other reviews posted. I am some one who happens to know alot about Fish Daddys. After reading some reviews about the restaurant i'd like to get a few things straight. First, there is ONE female manager employed there and the words "deal with it" would NEVER come out of her mouth to a customer.. and another thing is that the meat salads there DO NOT EVER come tossed in dressing.. with salads like a grilled chicken salad, it always comes on the side and if for some reason it was incorrect this particular manager would be the first to fix the problem! another review said the GM is terrible and the waitstaff is bad.. again not true. fish daddys serves a TON of food for a low price and its good. plus they offer MUCH more than just fish!! i give it two thumbs WAY up!
A bad General Manager Ruins a Good Restaurant! – the restaurant itself has really good food, however it is totally overshadowed by extremely poor customer service. This is caused by the general manager ( or at least the guy who claims to be the gm), he is just an extremely rude individual who makes it very uncomfortable to be in the restaurant. I usually don't take the time to write reviews, but this man has been rude to us on repeated occassions and now we simply won't go back despite the fact that we like the food. Whenever you are waiting for a table at Fish Daddy's in Tulsa, you can always over hear others talking about how rude the staff is and how terrible the general manager is. It is truly unbelievable...I'm shocked that they are still open, but that must speak to how good the gumbo is, I know that's the only reason I went back.
fish daddy's – Prompt seating....Friendly staff....Waited on quickly.....Drinks came promptly....Good menu....Fine tasting food
Poor Customer Service – When I dined there I was seated in a dirty booth directly facing the sun. Our order was completely wrong and when we asked the manger to help, she refused and told us to deal with it! She literally told me and my mother to deal with it!! We both had ordered grilled chicken salads, which took 45 minutes to arrive. My mother had ordered her salad without dressing, due to the fact that she cannot have dairy. She is highly allergic. Her salad was delivered slathered with the standard dressing that comes with this particular salad, which contains dairy. We asked the person who delivered our salads, who was not our waiter, to bring a fresh salad without dressing. She brought over the manager (10 minutes later). The manager was rude .To say the least, nothing was done about this. We were not compensated for this. We paid for a meal my mother could not eat. We paid our bill and left...hungry and disappointed.

Danny Trejo once again stars as Machete Cortez once again in "Machete Kills," which opens on October 11. And in this movie, as in most of his others, expends a lot of energy. But at age 67, where does he get it?
"I've got three movies coming up so I work out twice a day," Danny tells Men's Fitness magazine. "This is for a purpose. This isn't just to stay in shape. I gotta be pretty cut up. I do about four hundred sit-ups."
As for how he fits all that into his film schedule, "What I'll usually do is have some weights on set so I can work out when there's downtime. What you don't want to do is lay off too long, then you get really sore when you come back, and it's so hard to get started again. The biggest problem is that everybody tries to do too much when they start out. They'll be doing nothing and then say, 'I'm going to walk five miles every day.' No, no, no, no. Walk half a block. Then the next day, walk another half a block. You increase a little at a time. When I ran the L.A. marathon, I started out running a mile, then I ran two miles."
RELATED:FOX 11 Reporter Gina Silva spent some time with Danny at his San Fernando Valley home for a photo shoot. Check out the photos and video of him describing his tumultuous journey from convict to movie star.

Cloud Security Measures Too Opaque For Customers
With nearly half of IT managers avoiding cloud services over worries that their data will be leaked, it is time for cloud providers to become more transparent
The apparent cost benefits and flexibility of cloud services may have convinced companies' front offices to dive into the cloud, but convincing corporate security teams is another matter.
Nearly seven out of eight information-technology professionals do not trust cloud providers to protect their companies' most sensitive data, according to a recent survey conducted by Lieberman Software, a provider of privileged access management products. The majority would not trust cloud providers with their own personal data, either.
It's not necessarily about hackers and cybercriminals. Security-sensitive firms are concerned that a rogue employee at a cloud service provider or a government agency could access their data without their knowledge, says Philip Lieberman, president of the firm.
"The big problem is there is a lot of opaqueness in what cloud providers do," he says. "Companies want transparency, access to audit log data, and visibility into internal controls that go beyond best practices."
The survey, conducted at the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) Summit in November and released last week, collected responses from 300 IT professionals, with 70 percent representing companies with more than 1,000 employees and half working at companies with more than 5,000 employees....

This video was posted on YouTube on June 19, 2012.

Ashley Drew, a musician from Scarborough who inspired the University of Maine football team and caught the attention of the White House during her struggle with a genetic lung disease, died Thursday. She was 26.
Ashley Drew attends an event at the Cumberland County Civic Center in November 2011. The 26-year-old Scarborough woman, who had cystic fibrosis, died Thursday, July 25, 2013 at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston.
Family photo
Ashley Drew with her father, Tom Drew, in an undated family photo. The 26-year-old Scarborough woman, who had cystic fibrosis and inspired many in an Affordable Care Act video, died Thursday, July 25, 2013 at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston.
Family photo
Drew was born with cystic fibrosis, an inherited chronic disease that leads to life-threatening infections in the lungs and digestive system. Despite her illness, she ran track at Scarborough High School and played the saxophone, piccolo flute and the French horn at the University of Maine in Orono. She earned a degree in music education in 2009. She taught music at elementary and middle schools in Hampden and Glenburn, where she had a long-term substitute teaching position.
"She never let her CF define who she was," said her father, Tom Drew, of Scarborough. "She loved her family. She loved her friends. She loved teaching and her music. Most of all, she loved the Lord."
Drew's condition worsened in her 20s while she was pursuing a master's degree at UMaine in instrumental conducting. She was hospitalized repeatedly and placed on the transplant list on Dec. 17, 2010.
While she was waiting for the lung transplant, Drew gained national attention during the debate on the Affordable Care Act, the 2010 health care reform law also known as Obamacare. Last year, she became the poster child for one of the law's most popular provisions: a requirement that insurance companies cover dependent children until they turn 26 years old. She was featured in a video posted online by the Obama administration talking about the Affordable Care Act. In the video, she referred to the law as "Ashleycare."
Passage of the law meant that Drew could stay on her mother's health insurance to cover most of the cost of the life-saving and expensive surgery.
Drew underwent a double lung transplant on June 8, 2012, at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston. At the time of her transplant, her lung capacity was reduced to about 14 percent, said Mark Maroon, a close family friend.
"She spent most of her life gasping for air, being slowly suffocated," Maroon said. "I can't imagine that. It had to be terrifying for her. When she got her new lungs, it was so exciting for her. She didn't have to fight for every breath."
The transplant was a success, but an overload of medications caused complications with her kidneys. She also had a fungal infection that spread to her brain and caused strokes. She suffered two major strokes last week that ultimately killed her.
Drew's faith sustained her throughout her life.
"She loved the Lord with all her heart," said her mother, Joy Drew. "She climbed up on my knee when she was 7 years old and asked how she could be sure that Jesus was in her heart. We talked about it and she prayed with me and she knew he was there. She lived her life that way."
Drew was remembered by family and friends Friday as a strong, vibrant and determined woman who inspired thousands of people through her struggle with cystic fibrosis.
For the past two years, Drew chronicled her life with cystic fibrosis, and her life before and after the transplant, on a Facebook page, Air for Ashley. As of 5:45 p.m. Friday the page had 2,531 likes. More than 150 people commented on her family's post about her passing.

CNET editors' favorite speakers.
The latest iPod Touch is the best iPod ever, and as close to a phoneless iPhone 5 as you can get -- but its high price makes it a tough call versus cheaper tablets with larger screens.
The seventh-generation iPod Nano is an incredibly compact portable media player with gym-friendly features, but it's overshadowed by the superior value of Apple's iPod Shuffle and fourth-generation iPod Touch.
CNET's Donald Bell looks at the value proposition of Apple's latest 16GB iPod Touch -- and doesn't like what he sees.
The fourth-gen iPod Touch is Apple's second-best portable media player, with a price that will help you forget about No. 1.
The iPod Classic refines the formula that put the iPod on the map. None can match its combination of storage capacity, battery life, and intuitive user interface.
The Apple iPod Shuffle is an adorable way to take your favorite songs on the go, but sometimes it's too small for its own good.
The shape may have changed, but Apple's relentless attention to detail remains. The third generation of the iPod Nano provides loads of entertainment for a down-to-earth price.
Though the updates are subtle, the third-generation iPod Touch still leaves its competitors in the dust.
Back in the days before the iPod transformed the way people listened to music on the go, boom boxes were everywhere.
No other MP3 player on the planet packs more features, from video to a pedometer, into a smaller package than the overachieving Apple iPod Nano.

text: The Five Most Buzzed About Films From the Toronto Film Festival 5 Buzz-Worthy Films From the Toronto Film Festival by POPSUGAR Entertainment 9/20/10 0 Reactions 6 Shares Print 0 1 5 0 0 The Toronto Film Festival came to a close on Sunday, which means the 2011 Oscar buzz has officially begun. I expected some of these to garner a lot of hype, while others were pleasant surprises. Take a look at the five films that critics have been raving about, and start making your super early Oscar predictions. Black Swan What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 What it's about: Natalie Portman plays a ballerina who's tormented by rival Mila Kunis and her own inner demons. Watch the trailer here. Why it's buzzing: Portman's already being dubbed a shoo-in for a best actress Oscar nod, and it seems to be a strong contender for best picture and best director for Darren Aronofsky. 1 / 5 Biutiful What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 What it's about: Javier Bardem plays a drug addict and father of two who learns that he only has a few months left to live and becomes connected with his afterlife. Why it's buzzing: Oscar-winner Bardem reportedly gives another tour de force performance, and he already scored the best actor title back at the Cannes Film Festival. 2 / 5 The King's Speech What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 What it's about: Colin Firth plays Bertie, the man who eventually became King George VI. Ridiculed for a speech impediment, the film shows how Bertie overcomes his stutter with the help of an out-of-ordinary teacher (Geoffrey Rush). Why it's buzzing: The historical drama took home the People's Choice Award at TIFF, which has previously gone to American Beauty, Precious, and Slumdog Millionaire. 3 / 5 Rabbit Hole What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 What it's about: Nicole Kidman and Aaron Eckhart play grieving parents who have lost their child in a car accident. Why it's buzzing: The film has been described as near perfect and Kidman's performance is apparently excellent. The film was also just snatched up for release by Lionsgate. 4 / 5 127 Hours What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 What it's about: Based on the true story, James Franco plays Aron Ralston, a mountain climber who got stuck under a rock in Utah and had to cut his arm off to get out. Watch the trailer here. Why it's buzzing: The subject matter alone is enough to draw attention, and apparently the film leaves nothing to the imagination: at least one person passed out during screenings. Still, critics say the film is another home run for Danny Boyle and that James Franco's performance is not to be missed. 6 / 5 0 1 5 0 0 Read More The King's Speech2010 Toronto Film Festival127 HoursBlack SwanRabbit HoleBiutifulBuzz SlideshowMovies Get a Personalized Celebrity & Entertainment Newsletter!

Hunting Report From Bavaria Germany
Hunting Report
Date: 29-30 OCT 2009
Location: Bavaria Germany
Conditions: Temp 4-9 degree Celsius. Winds light. Patchy fog in the low grounds. Sunrise 0710L, sunset 1740L.
Forest Conditions: hard woods have shed 75% of their leaves, grass fields are down with good visibility in the forests and unrestricted visibility from the stand.
Type of Hunt: Driven stand hunt (Slow drive to circulate the game)
Game: Red Deer. Reh Deer, Boar. End of the late rut for Red Deer stags.
My association with these hunts is purely a social working relationship. I am the only American state hunter in this region as well as being the US-German coordinator for the various American hunting groups associated with the US military in Europe.
I thought Id show you guys some of our hunting in Bavaria. We just held a Driven/Stand hunt in the State forests of Hohenfels. These hunts are always a big turnout due to the fact that the areas are closed to the public except for six organized hunts a year. We hold one of the largest herds of Rotwild (Red Deer) in all of Germany. Typically we produce 20-25 gold medal class Hirsch a year on this revere either during drive hunts or single hunts.
The hunt was held over two days, 29-30 October, near Hohenfels Germany. The hunting area is a US military training area of over 16,000 hectares, 9,000 of which are forested. Hunts in this area are by invitation only. We had ten American hunters from the surrounding areas draw seats for this hunt. They were a good group of experienced hunters including one father/son team.
Day one started out at 0630 in the pre morning dark. The call of the horn assembled the 75 plus hunters at the briefing location. Hunters were quickly signed in and briefed on the rules of the hunt. We broke everyone down by their guides, no more than nine hunters on stand per guide. By 0730 we moved out into the revere. Hunters were seated on the stand by 0830 and the walkers and dogs began moving at 0900. The first kill of the hunt was a boar at 0850, followed quickly by several more as the first groups of boar were pushed through the area. Shooting continued throughout the morning until the mid day break. At the break I linked up with three of my ten American hunters. One was busily dressing a great Class 2 Hirsch, red deer stag with thirty inch beams. A beautiful stag taken at 160 meters with a sauer 300 WIN MAG. Immediately following the break the dogs and drivers began moving again. A rapid four shots from another American hunter drew my attention and I quickly made my way to a stand on a large open field. My hunter had shot four pigs, all from the same herd. Talk about some fast bolt action shooting. He worked that Heym .308 straight pull action like a semi auto and hit four for four. Day one ended with the call of the horn, signaling the final shot. All the game was gathered and brought to the foresters hut for a traditional lay out and honoring of the game, the strecke legen. My ten American hunters proudly kept score and determined they had accounted for nearly half of the game taken that day. Not bad for ten Americans out of nearly 75 hunters. Good shooting was the standard throughout as well as good trophy selection. A fine Class 2 Stag and several Class 3 and lesser spike bucks were taken on the first day. The horns were played for the fallen game and the Schutzenbruch (hunters branch) was handed out to all hunters who were successful that day.
Day two started much the same as day one. We moved to the northern huts in order to hunt the more rugged hilly areas of our northern boundary. In this area the big stags are more common but the terrain favors them. Once our hunters were on the stand the shooting was fast. Large numbers of boar had moved into this area and the drivers were getting them up and moving. Several hunters reported seeing large stags but did not wish to spend the trophy fees for such deer.
An absolutely huge boar was the first animal taken today. Tusks in excess of 14 centimeters exposed. The game was plentiful and moving due to the lack of previous hunting pressure. Shots continued throughout the day. An absolutely beautiful Class 2A hirsch Stag was taken as a management kill. It suffered from a previous wound to the left hind leg and a dislocated hip. Post mortem inspection revealed that infection had set in and the hunter rightfully exercised his responsibility to the game by putting this fine animal down. The final strecke legen was impressive over thirty hogs, nine reh deer, over twenty red deer. A fine Capital Hirsch, several class 3 hirsch, spikes, and does not to mention the biggest boar seen this season. Once again we played the horns honoring the game and the hunters who took them. It was an outstanding outing.
On the final night the high point of the evening was the Schusseltreiben or Last Drive. This was held at our local meeting place, our jagd hall has been in existence for over four hundred years. It is filled with the trophies of hunts and memorials to past hunters. This room is the most impressive place I've ever seen, four centuries of hunters and tradition. The menu for dinner was red deer fillets in a dark beer sauce and homemade wild boar bratwurst prepared by the wives and families of our members. The beer as always in Germany is the finest, a special dark beer known in the region as Kupfer. We can easily accommodate a hundred hunters after the hunt so this crowd felt right at home. The Jagd Konig or king of the hunt is always named at these events. The horns are played throughout the evening, the traditions are observed and enforced by our senior jagers. Infractions of the traditions of the hunt or in honoring the jagd Konig are levied by the Senior hunter present, in a good natured manner. Penalties can be severe and almost always involve paying a fine in alcohol, either consumed or purchased. The festivities continued through till nearly morning when we all departed for our hotels or homes. Great times in a wonderful country.

Macs B, Thank you for the great pictorial hunting report from Bavaria. I can't tell you how close to my heart the hunting in Europe is... it's part of who I am. I've hunted in Alsace, France since I could hold a gun. My family has had a hunting property for generations outside of Strasbourg and I would spend every moment that I could hunting and enjoying the nature... When I see scenes like this it's just like home for me.
You are so fortunate as an American to have experienced the true European tradition of hunting. It's just something different than what you can experience anywhere else!
Here is a picture of me (left) at 3 to 4 years old with my grandfather
Some of my earliest memories are of me hanging out with the game keepers, beaters and the dogs...

I just had 2 questions. First, does a DFU flash reflash the baseband if it's the same version? Or is it a one time deal?
Also, I have gotten error 3194 on a 3g doing a downgrade, I had to flash it to 4.1 to get the phone running again, DFU & recovery mode would not work. The phone was locked with a passcode that I did not know fwiw. I thought 3194 was a signature issue from apple, IE only appling to 3GS and 4's.

WOW! Those look amazingly delicious! Must give this recipe a try!
Shrimp and Bacon Stuffed Mushrooms
Inspiration: This is one of those recipes that I've been making for years (I think we've made it as part of Brandon's family's Christmas Eve supper for the past three years now), yet it's somehow never made it onto the blog. I've made a lot of stuffed mushrooms ever since I fell in love with mushrooms several years back, and in our opinion, nothing can hold a candle to these. They're by far our favorite stuffed mushrooms (and I think that my brother-in-law, Brian, just might agree). With football playoffs in full swing, I thought that now would be a great time to finally post this recipe. We always love to do a fun appetizer spread for Superbowl Sunday in particular, and after looking at these pictures, I have a feeling that these will be making an appearance on our table that day for sure.
What We Loved: These mushrooms are rich, cheesy, and decadent. They're defined by a wonderful bacon flavor that melds with the light, succulent flavor of fresh shrimp; the rich, browned flavor of sauteed onions; and a combination of velvety cream cheese and nutty, crispy Parmesan. The result is really just a perfect, intensely rich and flavorful combination. I feel like stuffed mushrooms are one of those dishes that just call for decadence, and these mushrooms definitely deliver.
Tips: I've made these using several different kinds of mushrooms (white stuffing mushrooms, baby cremini mushrooms, and large portabella mushrooms), and every kind that we've tried so far works wonderfully. I've found that smaller, appetizer-sized mushrooms are our favorite, but large, dinner-sized portabellas work just fine, too. Basically, this recipe will work as whatever you're looking for, depending on which mushrooms you use – an appetizer, a side dish, or even a main course.
Shrimp and Bacon Stuffed Mushrooms
Source: Adapted from The Girl Who Ate Everything
About 24 ounces mushrooms (whichever kind you prefer – we like to use smaller white stuffing mushrooms or baby bellas – about 18 mushrooms total)
4 slices bacon, diced
½ Vidalia onion, finely diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
Kosher salt and black pepper
About 10 large shrimp, finely diced
6 ounces cream cheese
¾ cups fresh Parmesan cheese, finely grated
1. Rinse and clean the mushrooms, and cut out all of the stems. Finely chop the stems and set aside.
2. Cook the bacon in a saute pan until it renders some fat and is about halfway crisped.
3. Add the onion and the mushroom stem pieces to the pan. Season well with salt and pepper, and continue to cook until the water released from the mushrooms evaporates and the vegetables are softened and beginning to get nice and browned.
4. Add the garlic to the pan, and stir to combine. Remove the pan from the heat, and stir in the shrimp.
5. Mix in the cream cheese and Parmesan cheese.
6. Spoon the mixture into the mushrooms, and place them into a baking dish.
7. Bake at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes, until the filling cooks through and the mushrooms have released their moisture. If desired, turn the broiler on for a minute or two before the end of cooking to brown the top of the mushrooms.
8. Let sit for a few minutes before serving.

These look so amazingly delicious! I love stuffed mushrooms, but I've never tried them with shrimp – I bet that would taste amazing. Definitely putting this on my list of must-try appetizers for the next time I have a dinner party!
is going to be making these for a get together tonight!!! I am excited, stuffed mushrooms is a new found fav of mine!!
Hi Carrie, I just thought I would let you know that I made these for a get together not long ago and my boyfriend who is a 5 Star Chef thought they were amazing… they are also a request for Christmas dinner!!
Made these for Easter Sunday, delicious! Big hit, even the people who didn't eat mushrooms ate these up with no problem! Thanks for sharing, will def make again. I did add about 15 crushed ritz crackers with 1/2 stick of melted butter and served with lemon wedges….thanks again!
Made this with Rice Pilaf and Baked Asparagus wrapped with Bacon… absolutely delicious! The stuffing in the mushrooms is so yummy and creamy and it reminds me of carbonara. Next time I make them, I'm going to serve them over a bed of pasta tossed in egg and olive oil to make a unique version of shrimp pasta carbonara!

A confident change in direction
Many of you know that the last year or so has been one of huge change for me, one which has also seen my self confidence quietly diminish as I questioned over and over again what exactly I am meant to be doing, whether or not I should keep this blog and whether I even have anything meaningful to contribute to the blogopshere. It would be a hard decision to end the blog as I love being able connect with all of you and I also love having a little corner of the internet where I get to create everyday.
Yet for a while now something has been bothering me; I haven't felt that this little space is a true reflection of me anymore, or rather, who I am today. While I will always appreciate the lovely, I guess I have changed so much from when I first started this blog and now I can't get over the feeling that I want more. I want more satisfaction from being able to help people and I want more satisfaction from knowing that my blog is a reflection of my true self, which I am afraid it is not.
I started this blog from a very different place to where I am now, a whole lifetime ago. I was newly married and in need of inspiration for setting up our first home together. But since then, things have changed dramatically - I am on a different journey, and now it is time for a new direction.
Fashion and style will always be my first love, and while it may be considered superfluous, I love it not because of the trends, or the latest from the runway, I love it because as women, we have the ability to define our own style. And with the style we create comes confidence, a confidence which allows us to shine and be the very best version of ourselves.
My other love that has been left off this blog is my overwhelming passion for health and fitness. Yes I have touched on it, but I have never really felt this was the right space to fully explore the topic and how big a part of my daily life it actually is. This passion has in fact prompted me to begin the next part of my journey where I have just enrolled to become a Holistic Health Coach through the Institute of Integrative Nutrition.
I have had so much angst over these two conflicting passions of mine and trying to figure out how they could fit together harmoniously. But only recently has it all started making sense: the common thread between the two is confidence and self love. When we commit to loving ourselves and are healthy, exercising and feeling our best, our self-confidence soars. By the same token, when we define our own style and our exterior matches what our heart is telling us on the inside, we develop the confidence to truly be comfortable with who we are.
So, I will be launching a new blog where I will be making it my mission to inspire women everywhere to create a life that is led by self love: one that is underpinned by living a healthy lifestyle and defining your own style; a life where you are overflowing with confidence, feeling good on the inside and not just looking good on the outside.
What does this all mean I hear you say? Well I'm in the process of setting up my new digs. I'm going all fancy with a grown up .com domain and will be making the move over to Wordpress. This is going to take a little while as I'm working with an amazingly talented lady to get it all designed and looking pretty. The next few months will be crazy as I dive head first into my course and really immerse myself into my new world, so I have decided to take a hiatus from blogging until the dust has settled and I have my new digs set up.
Thank you for bearing with me here and the long essay, but I wanted to give you an honest update on where my head and heart are at and what has been keeping me pre-occupied over the last few months.
In the meantime, I will still be on Pinterest, Twitter and Instagram and I will definitely pop back in here to let you know where my new place is at! {you will also notice that I have updated my profile handles to my full name}.
Before I go, I want to thank everyone who has been reading this little blog - whether you are new here or have been a long-time reader - I truly am grateful that you have taken the time out of your day to stop by and I hope you are excited to continue the journey with me.
Much love,
Rachel xx

The real meaning of Easter? Candy
I love Easter candy. I love biting the ears off chocolate bunnies and picking out all the red jelly beans. I even like marshmallow Peeps. And, when you're in front of the Easter display at the supermarket — thinking, "Creme-filled eggs for a dollar? Must buy them all!" — it's sometimes hard to remember that Easter is about family and tradition and, yes, even some religion, too.

This page was prepared for Eileen Burchell in Dr. Freedman's office and Dr. Anne Mannion who is on the Faculty Development Committee. It outlines the way different schools go about supporting faculty who are trying to balance teaching, research and administrative responsibilities.
Arts & Sciences
1. University Level Faculty Development activities/policies, which are University-wide and participated in by A&S (administered by the Office of Research)
Faculty Fellowships
Faculty Research Grant program
Faculty Research Expense Program
2. Dean of A&S Faculty
those that are administered by the Dean of A&S Faculty or by that Dean in conjunction with the Deans of the A&S Colleges and Schools
Help with Presenting papers: Provides reimbursement, partial or full, (depending on demand and availability of funds) for presentation of papers at academic conferences.
Help with Prestigious Fellowships: Awards full salary and benefits for faculty receiving year-long prestigious fellowships (NEH, etc.) that pay less than full salary for the academic year.
Help with Hosting Conferences: Provides support for hosting conferences, symposia, speakers (decisions on these awards are made jointly by and come from the budgets of all the A&S Deans).
Awards Course Relief: Awards, in cooperation with the other A&S Deans, especially the GSAS Dean, course relief, and in some cases graduate assistants and stipends, for editing of journals. Such arrangements have been rarely awarded however during the 3-2 phase-in, but several of them are now operative.
Help with Publications: Provides subventions for publications (done very selectively from the Dean of Faculty's budget when in the University's interest). Over the past three years, including the current year, approximately five faculty have received such assistance.
Administers the course evaluation program each semester: An instrument (known as SEEQ) is provided all instructors, who are required to set aside a time, toward the end of each semester, for the students to complete the instrument. The results are scanned, scores calculated and the results, with the student comments included, returned to instructors early in the following semester. Guidelines for this practice are provided by a committee of the Arts and Sciences Council, together with statements that provide help in the interpretation of SEEQ scores. The intention of this program is, first, to provide teachers with information about how students are judging their effectiveness in the classroom. The process is in other words an important tool in a teacher's effort to improve. SEEQ scores are also used by departments and the A&S Deans as one source of information in the evaluation of the teaching effectiveness of candidates' for reappointment, tenure and promotion. Peer evaluation, through classroom visitations, also is however employed by most departments as part of the teaching evaluation process.
Oversees performance evaluations of untenured faculty: Reviews, with all untenured faculty, the performance evaluations that have been made by the department and the A&S Deans during reappointment reviews. Thus, in their early years, untenured faculty every second year discuss with the Dean of Faculty, with the department chair present, where their department, and the Deans, have judged their performance strong and where in need of improvement.
Administers a mentoring program for junior faculty: in which a senior faculty member from a department other than that of the junior person is assigned to be the person's mentor. New junior faculty members are notified early in the academic year of the availability of such a mentor. The concept is to provide new faculty with a senior mentor who will not, as the mentor is from an outside department, be sitting on the junior faculty member's personnel committee later, a mentor with whom one can be perfectly frank in all matters. This relationship is not intended to substitute for but to complement departmental mentoring. The intention is that the outside mentor can give new faculty some entree to the University outside the home department as well as give him/her the benefit of the senior's experience in teaching, and so on. Senior mentors are volunteers. The program has been in place, including the current year, for two years. the volunteers have included many of the most experienced and highly regarded of the tenured A&S faculty. Last year, the new faculty cohorts beginning in academic 06-07 and 07-08 were invited to request a senior mentor; this year only the cohort of 08-09 was contacted. At least half of each entering cohort did request and receive a mentor. Informal reports indicate the program has proven successful; in most cases a helpful relationship between the senior mentor and the mentee was formed...
Arranges for a year-long orientation seminar (one for each campus) for new faculty: in which Fordham's educational mission and traditions as a Jesuit and Catholic University are discussed (funded by VP for Mission but arranged for by the Dean of A&S Faculty). The seminars are now, and have been in recent years, led by Professor Fred Wertz of Psychology for the current and previous academic years. Participation is voluntary but a high percentage of new faculty choose to attend the seminars. Readings and topics are selected partly upon the suggestions of the participants and may range from certain of Loyola's writings to Newman's Idea of a University to more recent publications that discuss the issues. The seminars are well attended and appear to have been quite successful in encouraging new faculty seriously to reflect upon their role in terms of Fordham's mission.
3. Deans of the A&S Colleges and Schools
those that are conducted by the Deans of the Arts and Sciences Schools
The Ames Fund: Assistance (research funds, salary supplementation) for especially promising junior faculty through the Ames fund (Dean of GSAS).
Faculty Seminars: Support for ongoing faculty seminars such as the NY 18th Century Seminar (Dean of GSAS).
Mellon Challenge Grant: funding for a variety of faculty development activities, e.g., organizing interdisciplinary faculty discussion seminars, organizing faculty seminars devoted to exchange of ideas regarding improving delivery of the core courses, development of new or enhancement of existing courses (Deans of FCRH and FCLC).
4. A&S Departments
those provided by the A&S Departments
Departmental Faculty Mentoring: Many of the A&S departments do have practices for orienting, assessing and mentoring junior faculty. In Philosophy for example, the Chair reports that he makes it a point to meet early in their coming here with new faculty to provide and explain the statement that outlines departmental norms for reappointment and tenure and to explain departmental best practice as to teaching, inviting the person to return for further discussion and with questions, which usually occurs more than once. Many other departments, including Theology, Economics, Mathematics, Computer and Information Science, report very similar practices. Two departments, English and Communications, have established faculty committees that meet with junior faculty, at an early point after they begin here, to discuss with them departmental teaching and scholarship norms and practices. The Communications department's committee is especially active. It meets three times per semester with all untenured faculty for discussion of procedures, norms and expectations regarding reappointment and tenure.
Faculty Seminars: Another type of faculty development, departmental seminars or discussion meetings, are found in a number of departments, including Philosophy, Sociology, Theater and Visual Arts and Computer and Information Science among them. English reports that a meeting of the department is held each September to welcome new faculty at which a senior member offers a lecture.
The Graduate School of Arts & Sciences
Faculty Fellowship program
Topping off an externally funded leave to keep the faculty member's salary & benefits the same.
Academic travel: partial support (not full per diem) for presenting papers at academic conferences (usually 2 per year).
Support for hosting conferences, symposia, speakers.
Course relief for scholarly projects, particularly in the pursuit of external funding, editing journals, and new course development.
Subventions for faculty books.
Junior Faculty
The Ames Fund: The GSAS has an endowment, the Ames fund, which is used to support the faculty development of junior (i.e., tenure-track) faculty.
Graduate Students
Professional Workshops for Graduate Students: We also do professional workshops for the grad students--and faculty have asked to attend those.
Funding for Graduate Assistants: We provide GAs (including tuition scholarships) to endowed chairs, several special initiatives (e.g., the Joyce Studies Annual. the new Center for International Policy Studies) and for specialized projects (the on-line medieval source book, a working paper series in Economics, etc.) in the summer when funding is available (I think that there were about 16 such awards last summer).
Faculty Seminars
Support for Seminar Series: Finally, by moving funding from our operating funds, the GSAS has created separate budgets for several on-going seminars: The NY 18th Century Seminar, the American Politics Forum, and the Writing program.
The Office of Research
has the following programs:
the Faculty Fellowship program
the Faculty Research Grant program
the Faculty Research Expense Program
Faculty Workshops: The Office of Research has been slowly moving into faculty workshop - we offered an all day one on getting funded last week with an internal speaker and will be offering more with the staff as instructors - one on each campus in each semester.
Fordham School of Professional and Continuing Studies
No full-time faculty, as you know, but, in the interest your having full information, know that at both Rose Hill and Westchester, at which we have a substantial presence of part-time faculty, there are dinner-cum-presentation programs held at the start of each year to kick it off well. This August at RH, for example, the presenter was Chris Toulouse on the Center for Teaching Excellence. Also, from time to time, adjunct faculty discussion groups are assembled at each campus, as well, on topics in a "faculty development" vein, but in which the topic is secondary to the purpose of sharing and community- building.
P. Holt
Per your request, here is an outline of activities for faculty at Fordham Westchester:
New Faculty Orientation: held 3 times per year. Typically runs about 90 minutes where we review best practices, sample syllabi, profile who our students are, discuss the Ignatian Heritage guide we get from Campus Ministry.
Faculty Meetings: 3 per year, one meeting to open each semester, usually 2 hours or so. We provide dinner, discussion of the state of the college, faculty concerns, and try to build community between our faculty.
Book Discussions: 2-3 per year. We ask faculty to help us choose interesting books to discuss as a group. We purchase a copy of the book for each faculty member attending and provide dinner. Recent books included: Mike Davis Planet of Slums, Jean Twenge Generation Me, and Thomas Friedman The World is Flat.
Blackboard: 3-4 x per year: Blackboard trainings at the introductory and advanced level for our faculty.
CADE: Bi-annually, we have the AJCU staff come and provide a CADE training for successful on-line teaching.
School of Law
Per your request, below is an inventory of faculty development programs and opportunities currently in place at the law school. Below is a list and brief description of those that pertain to law school programs. Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions or need additional information.
Mentor Pairing
We pair incoming entry level faculty with more senior members of the faculty who can advise them on developing their scholarship, law review placement, and teaching. Typically the Associate Dean for Academic Affairs pairs the faculty members, although in some years that task has been delegated to a senior faculty member.
Faculty Workshops
Each year the faculty hosts weekly workshops where our own faculty and faculty from other schools are invited to present recent articles or book projects. Typically these workshops last for an hour and a half over lunch. The faculty member presents his or her project or paper during the first twenty minutes or so of the workshop. The remaining hour is spent discussing the project with workshop participants.
Brownbag Series
We offer a slightly less formal forum for presenting very early drafts of papers, or even an early idea for a paper or project before anything has been written. These "brownbag" lunches are more relaxed than workshops and allow our faculty to test new ideas at the very beginning stages of the project. They are offered much less often than workshops, but on average there are around five brownbag lunches per semester.
Junior Faculty Workshop
Our untenured faculty hosts an area-wide workshop for untenured faculty members a few times each semester. This attracts faculty from law schools throughout the tri-state region. The workshop is modeled along the linesof the regular faculty workshop. Only untenured faculty may attend.
Teaching Committee
Our faculty teaching committee is charged with crafting programs to help faculty members develop as teachers. Partly this is accomplished by setting up a system whereby faculty can visit each other's classes. The untenured faculty members are also paired with each other to visit each other's classes and to discuss the various teaching techniques that they employ. The goal of the committee is also to help create a dialogue within the faculty about teaching issues so that faculty can more readily learn from each other and by introducing the Fordham community to techniques in use in other schools that are not routinely in use at Fordham.
Faculty Retreat
We hosted our first annual day-long faculty retreat in the spring. The retreat features a small group of faculty who present their work to the entire faculty. The format very much mirrors the regular faculty workshops but involves a full day of presentations. We plan to continue the retreat annually near the end of each academic year.
Graduate School of Social Service
Dean's Discretionary Fund
In addition to set aside funds for the faculty development committee, I provide from the Dean's Discretionary Fund, money for faculty travel to present at professional conferences has been increased substantially, since I became Dean. This has resulted in a large number of faculty members participating in juried workshops and invitations to be presenters and keynote speakers at professional events.
Jumpstart Grants
For the past five years each new faculty member has received a research "jumpstart" grant as a condition of employment. This has been funded from gifts. In addition to those funds, I established a faculty research fund in 2001 to provide money to seed research efforts that hopefully would lead to external funding. A committee appointed by the dean reviews the grants and makes one time awards to further the awardee's research.
Faculty Mentoring
As dean, when requested, I have asked appropriate faculty to serve as mentors to non-tenured and pre-tenured faculty. Although the results have been mixed as it relates to the time spent and actual help received, all mentees have expressed appreciation for at least having the opportunity to develop a more personal relationship with a senior faculty member. It should also be noted that Dr. Sandra Turner, Associate Dean, in large measure serves as a mentor for all faculty regarding their teaching performance and classroom engagement of students. She has made herself available to do classroom observations, to review course construction as new courses are developed, and to spend time talking about teaching strategies. Dr. Raymond Fox, a master teacher, is given course credit to offer a year long teaching seminar for our faculty. This is available to all faculty members including clinical faculty and is well attended.
Writing Group
Dr. Cynthia Poindexter spearheaded a writing group for faculty, and that group has continued for three years. The group meets monthly for idea generation, manuscript critique, and support in writing. Senior and junior faculty have participated in this ongoing work group.
Director for Research for GSSS
In fall of AY 08-09 a senior research scholar was appointed at Director of Research for GSSS. In addition to providing a fair amount of technical assistance she helps faculty in research design, proposal development and engaging them in strategic about how to get projects funded. Her involvement has been with junior and senior faculty.
C. Berkman, Faculty Development Committee, GSSS
This report includes the faculty development activities for the Visiting Scholars Series and the Faculty Research and Development Fund.
Visiting Scholars Series
The Visiting Scholars Series (VSS) began its third year in September 2008. I was the founding, and still current, director of this program. There are five other faculty on the VSS Committee. The goal of this program is to offer workshops that allow faculty to acquire knowledge or skills in an area of interest. The three hour length of the typical workshop allows for a more in-depth experience.
We select the topics to be presented by requesting possible topics from the entire GSSS faculty during the Spring semester. These topics are included in a survey in which faculty are asked to indicate which of these topics they want included in the VSS for the next year. The four most popular topics are scheduled for one of the four Friday afternoons during the academic year that are reserved for the VSS workshops. We also try to schedule other topics included in the survey that received at least five votes. These are scheduled on other weekdays.
Finally, we have offered full-day workshops in May after classes end, and this has been very popular. The goal of these workshops is to enable faculty to gain in-depth knowledge or skills.
Faculty Research and Development Fund
The Faculty Research and Development Fund (FRDF) started in 2003, with Lee Badger as Chair. I began as Chair this September. There is a five member FRDF Committee of faculty who review the applications submitted to the FRDF (two reviewers plus the Chair for each application). The FRDF Committee also proposes revisions to the FRDF Guidelines, as necessary, which are then presented to the full faculty for adoption.
As stated in the FRDF Guidelines "The purpose of this Fund is to foster and support GSSS faculty scholarship. Funds may be used to support research and evaluation projects, whether in their entirety or as supplemental to funds available through other sources. Priority will be given to those proposals that bear a clear and significant relation to an applicant's overall research program and would likely result in presentation at a national conference, publication in a refereed journal, and/or a grant proposal."

With Maul: Lockdown on sale this week, I had a chance to have author Joe Schreiber answer a few questions about his new novel. Joe was gracious enough to discuss the character of Maul and other aspects of Lockdown, including his collaboration with Jim Luceno to have it connect with Darth Plagueis. Having previously brought the living dead to Star Wars in Death Troopers and its prequel, Red Harvest, Schreiber is no stranger to the darker side of the galaxy far, far away.

Interview: John Jackson Miller talks about his new scifi serial Overdraft: The Orion Offensive
John Jackson Miller, author of Knight Errant and the upcoming Kenobi novel, has recently started a new original story, Overdraft: The Orion Offensive as a Kindle Serial. The first episode was released on April 2, and today is the release of the second installment, 'Golden Handshake.' Miller was kind enough to answer a few questions for us, as well as give us a prize to give away: copies of the short story prequel to the series, 'Human Error'.
I've enjoyed Miller's work as writer of the Knights of the Old Republic comics, as well as the Knight Errant comic series and novel, and the Lost Tribe of the Sith short stories, and I think that this serial, while set in an original universe, will delight readers with its characters, world building, and Miller's mix of action and humor. Let's get into the mini-interview on Overdraft:

I have ZASS installed on
two machines with XP and one with Vista. These machines differ much in regards to both hardware and software installed. Nevertheless, on all machines the antivirus is not able to scan the boot sectors. This problem came with version 7.0.337.000 and has persisted since then. I've tried reformatting and reinstalling XP several times, but this has no effect. I was really surprised when I got this problem also on my Vista machine, even with version 7.1.254.000. I have tried contacting support several times since April 2007, the answer being that they are working on it. Is anybody else having this problem, and if so;
have any of you found a solution to this.
